Someone local to us must have a boy who is a year older in size than our son. For the third summer in a row, I've picked up a two-piece beach/swimming outfit for him for 50p from our local CS!:heartpuls Mrs Marleyboy :heartpuls

Yesterday from our local hospice shop I picked up Jenga for £1, the boys love it, and a set of vintage shot glasses in the original box for £1.50. They are so pretty covered in little gold stars, I'm not sure how to put a picture on here when I'm on my phone but I put pictures on my blog if anyone wants a peek (link is on the drop down menu under my name)0
